Go exotic when it comes to chocolate

By Kashi Read more antioxidants, chocolate, daily challenge, and new tastes
Challenge Yourself for: 24 Hours

Chocolate has truly become the province of gourmands, with all sorts of exotic additions and flavorings. Dark chocolate balances these flavors particularly well, and we like it for its antioxidant punch. Today, challenge yourself to try something different and sample a Fair Trade dark chocolate with sea salt, pomegranate, or other new flavor infusion.

    My favorites are Dark Chocolate with either orange extract, mint extract, espresso or cayenne!

    I love chocolate without all the infusion that distracts from the flavor. (lavender, rose, etc.. it yucks it up)

    I could not find any candy with the logo on it, tried several stores that sell candy but no luck.

    We got some Fair Trade chocolate the other day – there were different bars in a package, some with curry, some with chile powder – so yummy – the different tastes challenge your palette as to what you expect in a chocolate bar.

    It’s a wonderful coincidence that I like it much better than milk chocolate! Add fruit and/or nuts, and it’s heavenly!

    I’ve only eaten dark chocolate for at least five years. It’s so much more delicious than milk and I absolutely LOVE it with raspberries. I also really like the Kashi Cherry Dark Chocolate bars…they are such an unusual but great combo!

    I only eat dark chocolate and the darker the better. I especially love the dark chocklate with pommagranite in it or with dried cherries or cranberries. I buy a couple of bags of them a month and then ration myself to two or three pieces a day so it lasts for the whole month. It is my reward for sticking to my diet the rest of the day. I have got to a point where milk chocolate just tastes too mild and wwwwaaaayyyy too sweet.

    I just bought a Newman’s Own Sweet Orange Dark Chocolate bar and savor it daily. I buy dark chocolate whenever my body says “Buy it now!,” which is often.

    I much prefer dark chocolate over the standard milk chocolate. Mostly this is because I’m lactose intolerant, but I think that dark chocolate has a more complex flavor and it pairs well with many things. I’m a fan of the spicy chili variety.
